Nice article and nice visualizations.
The problem I usually run into is the complexity - examples of event flows almost always look super cool, but in real life scenarios, the complexity is usually huge and complex flows are very hard to visualize in an organized manner.
Whether you are talking about Event flows, BPMN or TOGAF - if your workflows reflect all the real-life complexity (e.g. booking cancellation, editing, extra charges etc. etc.) it will get almost impossible to visualize them concisely.
Shameless plug:
I wrote few blog posts on the subject and also created a workflow tool to address this problem:
- Visualizing large workflows using D3, React and Clojurescript

- Revisiting workflows: BPMN is dead. Long live the Functional Programming!
